3-Level Restaurant With 5 Bars Now Open Along Delaware River

PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia's largest restaurant is now open on the Delaware River waterfront.

Liberty Point opened this week and is now the city's largest restaurant, with capacity for up to 1,400 guests over three main levels and five bars.

The new restaurant has three main levels, with other sub-levels, with 25,000 square feet of space outside and 3,000 square feet on the inside.

Located at 211 S. Columbus Boulevard, Liberty Point is part of the FMC Hospitality group, which includes Craft Hall, Lola's Garden, Morgan's Pier, and more.

Menu features include a raw bar, sandwiches, salads and seasonal bites. Food services will include lunch and dinner, plus a later night menu.

Classic French-trained Executive Chef Qadir Jordan is leading the kitchen, and his favorite dishes are Loaded Shrimp and Grit "Tots" and "The Whole Jawn."

The menu items vegetarian and gluten-free options, as well as locally sourced ingredients.

Beer, wine, mocktails, frozen summer drinks and cocktails on tap are part of Liberty Point's bar program.

The Main Bar Area, Sunset Patio and the Sky Bar are all reservable through Resy.com.

The Picnic Area around the stage will be a mix of reservations and first-come, first served around the shows. The entire first floor ground level is first come, first served.

Other areas are reserved for large group dining and special events to start.

The permanent stage is in the heart of the restaurant complex. New entertainment weekly will feature live music Friday and Saturday and DJs throughout the week.

There will be a $10 cover in the immediate stage area for Thursday to Saturday evening shows once they begin. Wednesday night acoustic night and Sunday reggae shows are free with no cover.

"We are excited to bring this new dining concept to the Waterfront to join the already vibrant destination for recreational, cultural, and commercial activities for the residents and visitors of Philadelphia," owner Avram Hornik said. "There’s always something happening at Penn’s Landing. It is the top Summer destination in Philadelphia that hosts concerts, fairs, food and drink and we are happy to be a part of it."

Hours are noon to 2 a.m., seven days a week.

Liberty Point will be family friendly, and the first level will be dog friendly. Dogs are allowed in the boat bar area located on the first floor. Only service animals will be allowed to head to the second floor.

Liberty Point does have covered and indoor space, but the majority of the restaurant can be affected by weather. Weather updates will be shared on Liberty Point's social media.
